I would not trust any "rule of thumb" he needs a accurate heat load calculation for the house, in South LA too large of a unit is worse than too small.
Agree. If you have too much AC your compressor will not run long enough to dehumidify. There are software programs that can calculate the load based on SF, orientation, windows, insulation, people in house, etc. Your builder should be able to help or others on here.
